You x IPC
Having access to help and subject matter experts is so important - like the marketing department who supports me with everything I need. They save me hundreds of hours (literally) on work so that I can go ahead and tell my story, and work with clients to find them financial solutions. I've never had that before, they're right in my back pocket – supporting me and my business – it's really amazing.

We've been able to tap into IPC's experience with other advisors whose sons or daughters or other people they've brought in to take over the business and (this experience) has given me ideas on how to approach succession.
